7:04 am
other choice but to catch dykes by surprise. incredibly, ethan's mother had asked police days ago, not to kill dykes. >> she put her hand on the officer's heart and said, sir, don't hurt him. he's sick. >> reporter: you know, friends and family tell us that little ethan is a boy that loves to be hugged. and you can bet, he's getting those hugs today. >> thanks, gio. joining us are ethan's great aunt and uncle. take us back to that moment when you first heard he was safe. >> i was telling some of the family that, you know, if i could, i would do cartwheels all the way down the road. i was ecstatic. everything seemed like it was just so much clearer. you know, we'd all been walking around in a fog. and everybody was just -- they were excited. there's no words to put how we felt and how relieved we were.
7:05 am

7:06 am
the things that he did, his actions. he seemed to have some issues. >> so, he was pretty well-known in the community, deborah? >> he was pretty well-known here. but i mean, you know, just small community here. i had never heard of him before. >> but others had. and we know that ethan's mom had been hoping that mr. dykes would not be killed in this standoff because she said he's just a sick man. did she talk to you about that? >> like i said, as far as he goes, we were given just very little information on him. >> tell us a little more about ethan. i know you call him your little buddy. >> he was -- he's a special child. he's 90 miles per hour all the

7:09 am
refineries are doing maintenance. throw in the tensions in the middle east, and the prices are on the rise. we are nearly paying $3,000 just to fill up our tank every year. a massive 4% of the family income, josh. not good for the family budget, especially if we hope to keep fueling what has been a very fragile economic recovery. >> no pun intended. thank you for that, cecilia vega. we're burning more gas in traffic than ever before. the average american spends what amounts to one week in traffic every year. the most congested cities, washington, l.a. and san francisco. many drivers in the d.c. area need to leave almost two hours early just to make it to work on time. and five years after the financial crisis tanked the economy, wall street credit agencies may have to face the music. the justice department is suing standard & poor's, saying the agency ignored its own standards

7:11 am
lottery scratch ticket. it was a winner. a big one. $1 million big. on the way home, they stopped at the same store and buy another ticket. and take a look. the check for $1 million. and another check for $50,000. >> you have to be kidding me. >> they're going to use the cash to pay some bills and save for retirement. i'm going to announce that "good morning america" is going on the road. and we're coming to arkansas. >> did they go back for a third time or not? >> maybe you push yourself away. i don't know. >> i say you're looking at it going, it's all good. we don't need to go back. >> thanks. we have the latest on sarai sierra. she's the new york mom found murdered in turkey. as authorities piece together her final hours to find the killer. abc's nick schifrin spoke to her husband. good morning, nick. >> reporter: good morning, george. today, he's coping with unimaginable sadness, preparing
7:12 am
to fly home with her body. her murder still unsolved. this morning, investigators are combing through clues at the crime scene, trying to figure out how the new york mother's body was dumped inside a cave at the old city walls. the man who loved her for 16 years, told me on the phone, he was consumed by grief. how much do you miss her today? >> i can't put that in words. i've never, ever, in my life, have i had a love like this for another person. you know? it's a deep, deep love. >> reporter: steve sierra says he's heartbroken. he had always dreamed of spending the rest of his life with sarai. >> she's amazing. i mean, she is amazing. you know? she truly is. just very loving. with the kids, she's so loving and caring. >> reporter: police are now taking dna samples from 21
7:13 am
suspects. and comparing them to dna found under sarai sierra's fingernails. they are combing through hundreds of hows of surveillance video. that's sierra in a mall, just one day before she was due home. just a couple of hours before she left, she told her family she would come to this bridge to take a few final photos. it's only about a 15-minute walk from her house. she never made it. and she was never seen again. >> i would like to know what happened from the time she left her room, to the time she was going to take pictures of the bridge. >> reporter: sierra's coffin has been moved to a church to prepare for the journey home. in new york, her family is shocked and inconsolable. >> she was going to go on this trip. i hugged her before she left. >> reporter: steve sierra tells
7:14 am
me he has to do one of the hardest things he'll ever have to do in his life, tell his kids. they still don't know if their mom is coming home. and he hasn't had the strength to tell them over the phone. >> cannot blame him for that. we move on to some of the questions of what caused the blackout at the super bowl. was it beyonce's electrifying halftime show that knocked out the lights? abc's matt gutman is here with a closer look at how it all went down. >> reporter: well, beyonce may have killed it. she didn't cause the blackout. the utility company had been concerned about decay in the electrical feeders powering the superdome three months ago. and this morning, the ravens set to start their ticker tape parade in a couple of hours. there's one more mystery afoot. overnight, triumphant and tired, the ravens brought that vince lombardi trophy home to jubilant
7:15 am
baltimore. the trophy that has been kissed, coddled by so many. >> we thought we lost it. >> reporter: the trophy didn't make it to the super bowl party. it was located monday. maybe all of the sets of fingerprints helped track it down. then, there's sunday night's other whodunit. two minutes into the second half. >> one flick of the light switch and we lost power. >> reporter: the game stopped. players perplexed. "60 minute" cameras caught it all from the control room. john harbaugh, furious. a near record 108 million s wat. could it have been beyonce's megawatt performance? >> beyonce blew the electric twice, i'm told, during her rehearsals. >> reporter: was beyonce too electrifying? despite jay-z's tweet. lights out. any questions?
7:16 am
officials say it wasn't beyonce's electrifying show that blew the power. >> there's no indication this was caused by the halftime show. absolutely none. >> reporter: turns out, beyonce brought her own generators. on twitter, the blame landed on this guy, from the movie "airplane." >> just kidding. >> reporter: and jokingly, the half of last year's halftime show, madonna. the power company says the likely culprit, an old-fashioned power surge. nearly $1 million to revamp the electrical grid. have no fear, beyonce may not become persona non grata anytime soon. >> i know folks in baltimore were celebrating already. but there might be some more reasons for that. >> indeed. we love this story, amy. today, ravens fans are celebrating the win. but not exactly why you might think. a whole bunch of people are getting free furniture thanks to one company who frankly made the
7:17 am
wrong bet. take a look. it seemed like a pretty sure bet for this baltimore furniture company. >> baltimore returns the opening kickoff of either half for a touchdown, everything you buy before 3:00 p.m. on sunday, will be free. >> reporter: sure enough, when the 49ers kicked off to start the second half, that's exactly what happened. >> 109 yards and a touchdown. >> reporter: now, gardner's is making good on its promise. $600,000 forth of furniture all free for the lucky buyers who made purchases in the three days leading up to the big game. >> nobody was more surprised than i was when the second half opened and jacoby jones ran back for a touchdown. within second, my phone is ringing. >> reporter: customer, tom carter came to collect. >> $763.18. >> reporter: tom and his wife bought a new mattress and box spring and thought, what the heck? >> i was so happy.
7:18 am
>> reporter: they'll name the box spring jacoby. congratulations to them. so glad that gardner's is making good on a promise. and the odds of returning a kick for a touchdown, are about 300-1. probably a zillion-1, it would happen at all for these lucky commerce. everybody wins. >> good publicity. let's go to sam and the weather. >> hey, how's your day going? >> oh. >> from "the cincinnati enquirer." these are small, quick-moving clipper systems. we'll show you video out of new jersey. light snow falling. it's just enough to be a nuisance. the roads are not wet. and you know it as soon as you put the brakes on. thanks for the follow-up questions, everybody. >> you can't show the picture without the questions, right? that's fair. just asking a question. >> a rough morning. okay. in comes -- i'll remember that, josh. in comes an area of low pressure.
7:19 am
and several of them that sweep through. from the dakotas to the great lakes, to new england. it's one or two more of those systems, quick-moving clipper-like symptoms. in the deep south, some heavy rain today. this is, by the way, today's rain -- the eastern coast is today's rain. the western coast is tomorrow's rain. good morning, maryland. i'm meteorologist lanette charles. we're dealing with cold temperatures this morning and above average.

7:32 am
jury she killed in self-defense. well, she started her story. the question this morning, will anyone believe her? >> you may come forward and take a seat, please. >> reporter: jodi arias, admitted killer and serial liar. took the stand saying -- >> swear to god? >> reporter: she'd tell the truth. >> how are you feeling right now? >> nervous. >> reporter: she should be. the 32-year-old could face the death penalty if convicted. her defense attorney wasted no time getting to arias' newest story. that she stabbed and shot her ex-boyfriend in self-defense. >> did you kill travis alexander on june 4th, 2008? >> yes, i did. >> why? >> the simple answer is that he attacked me. and i defended myself. >> reporter: arias looked right at jurors as she told her story. the same jury that has watched
7:33 am
her lie to police, over and over. >> i did not hurt travis. >> reporter: the prosecution is hoping the jury will not believe a word out of her mouth. they say arias stalked travis alexander. and then planned the brutal killing of the businessman. arias spent almost two hours on the stand monday. most of it focused on her childhood. with her mother in the front row, she claimed her parents beat her. >> hit you hard? >> it felt pretty hard, yeah. it left welts. >> reporter: she also testified about early boyfriends she says were processive. the defense is hoping to convince the jury arias was a victim of repeated abuse, who ultimately had to kill to save her own life. arias also tried to explain away this jailhouse interview with the show "inside edition." >> no jury is going to convict me. >> why not? >> because i'm innocent. and you can mark my words on that one. >> reporter: now,his jury, that was not as arrogant as it sounded. >> at the time, i had plans to commit suicide.
7:34 am
so, i was extremely confident that no jury would convict me because i didn't expect any of you to be here. >> reporter: this jury has taken copious notes since the beginning of this case. but not when jodi arias got on the stand. pencils and papers down, they were riveted. and the main event is still ahead. the fiery prosecutor taking on the woman he calls a cold-blooded murderer, in cross-examination. it should be something to see. amy? >> ryan owens, thank you very much. for more, let's turn to our legal team. nancy grace and dan abrams, "gma's" legal analyst. dan, obviously, this has been an uphill battle for the defense. what do you make of arias' testimony on the stand? >> i said from the beginning this is a terrible defense. they've made almost no progress thus far. but jodi arias is a great witness. she's a great liar. but she's a great witness. she looks over at the jury at
7:35 am
the right times. she pauses at the right times. she thinks at the right times. >> she looks like a librarian. >> she is a great witness. now, i don't know that that's going to hold up on cross-examination. i would doubt it very highly. but they had to put her on the stand for this defense. and considering only seeing two hours of her direct examination, i think she's done perfectly well. >> her attorney had her admit right away, that she killed travis alexander. what do you think of her testimony so far? >> well, frankly, after watching her on the stand for two hours, i liked her ninja story much better. when she was talking to "inside edition" or "48 hours" when she told the story of the man and woman clad in solid black who came in and murdered travis, as she watched and escaped with her life. she was much more believable then. yesterday, she would look at her lawyer. and then, robotically turn to the jury and say, yes.
7:36 am
and turn back to her lawyer. i mean, a mannequin at saks fifth avenue had more life and more feeling. remember, dan, this is a woman who started crying in front of the jury when she saw a picture of a dog. so, when she was trying to remember her own story, she was extremely robotic. >> i didn't view it as robotic. i watched the whole testimony. i thought if you take away everything that has actually been said and you take away the content of her story, which i agree with you, claiming that this is somehow, now, a suicide as opposed to her claiming she was innocent is impossible to believe. but as a witness, i didn't view her as robotic. i thought she was actually -- >> dan, dan, dan, you're under her spell. >> i am. >> she got to you. >> she did. i am. >> the jodi arias mojo has gotten you. >> i could have been her next victim. >> the abuse. she said her mom spanked her with a wooden spoon. i had to go pick a switch -- my
7:37 am
own switch off a tree for my grandmother. i don't think a wooden spoon is going to make a lot of difference. maybe the father slapping her when she stayed out all night. that might get to a jury. and every boyfriend she's had. he cheats or he's terrible. and i'm sure they're going to paint travis alexander in the same stroke. >> they are. and this is the sort of thing where they could have decided to wait until the penalty phase to have her testify about this, right? >> they did this earlier than usual. and the attorney tried to diffuse one comment, saying she would never be convicted. when she had an earlier interview saying, i'm completely innocent. i'll never be convicted. was it believable, saying she was contemptlating suicide? >> it's like she's saying it in a vacuum. she's saying, i'm innocent. and no jury will convict me. >> that's exactly right, dan. she said no jury will convict
7:38 am
me. i'm innocent. travis knows i'm innocent. that's why they won't convict me. can you see back in the attorney conference room. let's see -- they won't convict me because i'm truthful. that won't work. because i was going to commit suicide. >> we're going to have much more. >> he's got to be careful -- i think not to go at her. they'll be able to get her on the facts. he shouldn't be too aggressive. >> i'm sure we'll be back, revisiting this soon. dan, nancy, thank you for being with us. we appreciate it. time, now, for the weather and sam champion. sam, good morning. >> hey, amy. we're going to start with 70 degrees in l.a. yesterday. today, about 63 degrees. that's a sign that the wind is shifting. also, we're dropping cooler air down the coastline today. it may help get rid of the fog that's there as we change to the air mass. it's a tough fog. in the central valley, you have less than 300 feet in visibil y visibility. 63 in l.a. you have fog on the coastline. snow in the mountains. all that mild air has pushed east. that's good news if you're
